Answer 1

Explanation:

Number of individuals = 4

Cost of dozen donuts with transport = $17.45 + $1.25

= $18.7

Since there are 12 pieces in a dozen pack of donuts, then the amount of each donut is:

= $18.7/ 12

= $1.56

So, if four people share a dozen donut, each person will have:

= 12/4

= 3 donuts each

and the price each person will pay for the three donuts will be:

= $1.56 × 3

= $4.68
